Amstrad Action reviewed the Amstrad CPC version, by Firebird and Torus at £14.95 on cassette, in February 1986 and made it its Mastergame, the month's highest-rated game, with an AA rating of 94% (graphics 96%, sonics 24%, grab factor 94%, staying power 95%). It found more colour than in earlier versions and smooth vector graphics, but most of the sound effects disappointing.p. 50 (image 50), review headerp. 35 (image 35), review indexp. 35 (image 35), review indexp. 35 (image 35), how the ratings workp. 51 (image 51), ratings boxp. 51 (image 51)p. 51 (image 51)p. 51 (image 51)Magazine
